The importance of data training for public sector workers
There is no doubt that digital skills training is necessary today. Basic digital skills are essential to be able to interact in a society where technology already plays a cross-cutting role. In particular, it is important to know the basics of the technology for working with data.
In this context, p…
What data governance should look like in open source AI models
Open source artificial intelligence (AI) is an opportunity to democratise innovation and avoid the concentration of power in the technology industry. However, their development is highly dependent on the availability of high quality datasets and the implementation of robust data governance framework…
SLM, LLM, RAG and Fine-tuning: Pillars of Modern Generative AI
In the fast-paced world of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), there are several concepts that have become fundamental to understanding and harnessing the potential of this technology. Today we focus on four: Small Language Models(SLM), Large Language Models(LLM), Retrieval Augmented Generation…
RAG techniques: how they work and examples of use cases
In recent months we have seen how the large language models (LLMs ) that enable Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) applications have been improving in terms of accuracy and reliability. RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) techniques have allowed us to use the full power of n…
How Artificial Intelligence and Open Data can re-imagine our cultural future
We are currently in the midst of an unprecedented race to master innovations in Artificial Intelligence. Over the past year, the star of the show has been Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI), i.e., that which is capable of generating original and creative content such as images, text or music…
Vinalod: The tool to make open datasets more accessible
Public administration is working to ensure access to open data, in order to empowering citizens in their right to information. Aligned with this objective, the European open data portal (data.europa.eu) references a large volume of data on a variety of topics.
However, although the data belong to di…
Open data as a source of knowledge for generative artificial intelligence
Generative artificial intelligence refers to machine’s ability to generate original and creative content, such as images, text or music, from a set of input data. As far as text generation is concerned, these models have been accessible, in an experimental format, for some time, but began to generat…
Artificial Intelligence applied to the identification and classification of diseases detected by radiodiagnosis
In this post we have described step-by-step a data science exercise in which we try to train a deep learning model with a view to automatically classifying medical images of healthy and sick people.
Diagnostic imaging has been around for many years in the hospitals of develo…
What are the main elements of a data space?
For a data space to function properly, it is necessary to have sufficient actors to cover a set of roles and a set of technological components. These elements enable a common governance framework to be established for secure data sharing, ensuring the sovereignty of the participants over their own d…
Different approaches to identifying high-value data
Since the publication of Directive (EU) 2019/1024 on open data and re-use of public sector information, the European Commission is undertaking a number of actions to develop the concept of high-value data that this directive introduced as an important novelty in June 2019.
We recall that high-value…
